Bike sold to thosewerethedays for £60 inc. shipping.

Boxing Day bump.

Weekend bump.

Just a quick bump to say the Pedals are PD-M545's, double-sided SPD with an alloy cage.

Sorry, should have thought of that! It's a 19"

Due to an impending house move I need to find a new home for my trusty Raleigh Peak, I've had it since new and apart from a couple of problems with brazing around the rear triangle which meant a couple of warranty replacement frames it's been reliable. It has the full original LX groupset...

That price is an eBay tactic used by sellers who have run out of stock (check the previous purchases link on the listing) and don't want to pull the advert, once they actually have batteries to sell the price will be back down to the £15 mark.

There used to be a late-night cookery slot on Channel4 back in the early 90's presented by 'Man on the street' that went by this name

Here's my current commuter just after I put it together. The frame is a 2004 Orange Gringo, various other parts came from Retrobike members.

I used that technique to rescue my own system but I haven't updated the other Windows 7 machines just yet. My machine reports it is running SP1 but I'm not sure it's a complete installation. One other machine has SP1 installed and didn't need my attention so I guess it's not a dead cert that...

Yep, exact clone, I've only used it to clone drives so the normal routine is to add the new drive as a secondary, install Ghost and set the task up, the PC then reboots to a DOS session and clones the disk. PC reboots and you can then shut it down and swap the disks so the new disk becomes the...

I had this with my work PC and ended up at a highly useful forum post via Google which gave step by step instructions on removing a section of one of the XML files which are used by the update. Once this was done it then continued and has been useable since although I'm still not certain...

Ghost allows to create an image of your drive for recovery purposes or to clone your drive to a new one, it also does backups I think. Very handy if you are just replacing a small drive with a larger one but I don't know how useful it would be with an unbootable system.

What Neil said... Disks can and do fail without warning sometimes. Backup what you can and replace it, I've had two drives go at work in the last week, working one day and semi-functional at best the next. Cheap enough to replace though, for the cost it's not worth risking your data.

Wow, how wrong was I? :( Just read on the BBC site that Tepco are saying that re-criticality isn't out of the question which is disastrous if they are referring to the storage pond of reactor 4 which seems to be the case although on the plus side they are close to re-connecting to the grid which...

BBC news website is reporting a twitter feed saying it was a build-up of Hydrogen in the area outside the container which has apparently now been de-pressurised, time will tell I suppose but it's testament to the engineering that only that one reactor has had problems after such a major earthquake.

Gadget show bike test is next week, was on at the very end of this weeks episode.

Our Washing Machine, Fridge Freezer and Dishwasher all came from Appliances Online, they have certain models available for quick delivery which was a godsend when our old Fridge decided to pack in on a Friday afternoon, new one was with us on Monday morning and their prices seem competitive enough.

Cycling specials coming up in a couple of weeks according to a leaflet in my local branch the other day, plenty of clothing and luggage as well as the usual collection of el-cheapo multitools and pumps etc.

Just on the off-chance that anyone wants or requires a desk/chair, I have offered this on Freecycle along with a second smaller desk so if anyone fancies some free furniture, drop me a PM, I need these out of the way ASAP :)
